Capcoran Regiments
The Capcoran Regiments are the primary defensive force of the Free City of Capcora. Consisting of a combination of conscripts and volunteers, these forces are the home defense of the free city and all of its environs and holdings. The Regiments are independent of the various mercenary companies and marines offered from some of the sources of the city, and are focused upon defense and the occasional offensive efforts undertaken by the city against raiders and pirates. They are professionally trained, and originate in their creation from the Imperial Army regiments of Jakonia.
Structure
The Capcoran Regiments are organized similarly to the Imperial Regiments of the Jakonian Empire, having been originally belonging to that state. Each regiment consists of self-sufficient support, both in terms of logistics and artillery. They are each capable of functioning as their own units or in cooperation with the others. The regiments are each commanded by a Colonel, who reports to the General of the Regiments. The General is appointed by the Lord Mayor of Capcora and answerable to him alone. Underneath the General, he is free to make any of his own promotions and appointments, based on who best deserves the posts. Those underneath the general have similar freedom but typically are required to receive approval before any promotions are finalized.
Public Agenda
The Capcoran Regiments' express public purpose is to protect the Free City of Capcora and all of its holdings throughout the world. They are expressly forbidden from taking a political role in the overall society of the Free City, and are denied any vote or representation among the Ruby Council. The military seeks only to preserve order and protect the people of the city from any external threats, regardless of origin.
Assets
The Capcoran Regiments consist only of five units total. Four of these are land regiments designated for the defense of Capcora and the Ruby Citadel, while the fifth is the Regimental Marines, designed to work closely with the Free Navy and their forces for larger scale military operations abroad. The Capcoran Regiments are extremely well equipped, being provided with some of the finest crafted weaponry and highest technology available on the Jakonian Peninsula. Equipped with gunpowder siege trains, one of the most powerful fortresses in Emicara, and access to exclusive repair foundries and forges, the Regiments have a seemingly inexhaustible supply of wealth and weapons provided by the Ruby Council and the people of Capcora.
